A:AnswerHi There.
Glad that you ask what is the shape of the ice on your Samsung Refrigerator. This refrigerator model produces crescent ice.
Have a great day.

A:AnswerHi there,
The doors should be open by 135 degrees to ensure that the crisper/drawer can move freely.
The sides also require a clearance of 11 1/2 inches on each side for the doors to open to the desired angle.

A:AnswerHi there,
This fridge model has an ice bucket but doesn't have a water dispenser because it doesn't have a water filter.
Please see the "Installation" section on pages 15-16 of the user's manual for your reference.

A:AnswerGlad you asked, Sunshine1234. Let us go ahead and get you some details about the fridge.
After looking into the manual for the fridge, there is no information about any feature that turns off the cooling capability of the fridge or the freezer when the door is ajar.
Leaving the door ajar can cause frost from the condensation when the hot air from the outside meets the cold air within. Also, the fridge has a door alarm feature which is triggered if the fridge door or freeezer drawer.
Please see the links for more details.

Thank you for reaching out to ask if the ice maker shuts off when the bin is full.

The ice maker produces 8 cubes per cycle, generating approximately 100–130 cubes within a 24‑hour period, depending on factors such as freezer temperature, ambient room temperature, frequency of door openings, and overall usage conditions.
